Facilities Akaka Forest Camp
A perfect combination of raw nature …
Akaka Forest Camp is situated in inhabited tropical rainforest and wetlands, on the Rembo Ngowe River.

Even more than viewing wildlife, this journey is truly about complete immersion in a peaceful bush setting, allowing all your senses to be overwhelmed by the wonder that is Africa’s Eden.
